Dorothy P. Elliott

Dorothy P. Elliott, of North Haverhill New Hampshire passed peacefully on January 7th, 2026, at the age of 93. She was born in Boston, Massachusetts on March 22, 1932, she was the cherished daughter of the late Antonio and Rose (Mourad) Corey. Dororthy was raised in Roslindale neighborhood of Boston, where she graduated from Roslindale High School with the class of 1949. Dorothy enrolled in the Chandler Secretarial school where she mastered Greg & Pitman shorthand, she also was top of her class and could type over 200 words per minute.
Dorothy married her beloved husband, Kenneth A. Elliott, on January 22, 1955. The young couple initially made their home in New Hampshire where they welcomed their first-born son, then moved to Roslindale, MA, welcoming their first daughter. In 1962 they moved into their home in East Walpole, MA, where two other daughters joined the family. In 1986 Ken and Dot moved to their home on Brushwood Road in North Haverhill, NH. As her children grew Dorothy worked nights at Factory Mutual Insurance as well as typing for various companies from her home office. We can all still hear her typewriter clicking away. Dot worked for many years as a patient intake admin for Cottage Hospital in North Haverhill before retiring.
Dorothy was a devout Roman Catholic and volunteered at her Church ironing the linens and singing in the Latin/English Choir, Dorothy was a contralto with a strong, rich tone to her voice that had an impactful presence.
Dot had deep persistent faith, and fierce intercession with intense devotion to The Sacred Heart of Jesus and The Immaculate Heart of Mary. Dorothy had many favorite Saints especially St. Joseph the carpenter and the Little Flower, Saint Therese of the child Jesus.
She found comfort with Rosary in hand, and if she promised to pray for you, she did devoutly. We called her the leader of the God Squad, and many counted on her prayers.
